LEESBURG, Fla. – A 26-year-old man on Friday was arrested on charges of practicing dentistry without a license, the Leesburg Police Department said.
Investigators said Allen Turner had been making custom molds for dental grills at his home.
Turner told Channel 9 on Monday that he was unaware that what he was doing was illegal and that he considers himself more of a jeweler. Continue reading “Leesburg man made teeth grills at home without dentistry license, police say”
Hurricane Michael is headed for a catastrophic, unprecedented Category 4 strike on the Florida Panhandle and Big Bend with a massive storm surge and over 100 mph winds possible not just near the coast, but also inland that could leave some areas without power for over a week.
If Michael makes landfall as a Category 4 storm, as expected, it will be the strongest hurricane to ever come ashore along the Florida Panhandle in records dating to 1851, according to Dr. Phil Klotzbach, tropical scientist at Colorado State University. In fact, Florida’s entire Gulf Coast north of Punta Gorda has never recorded a Category 4-plus hurricane landfall.
Coconut oil is a shelf stable product that really does it all. This pantry item can be used (nutritiously) in place of butter, shortening, and cooking oil, and then pressed into duty as a health and beauty aid.
One of my favorite things in the stockpile is my big jar of organic virgin coconut oil. And the craziest thing about that? I don’t even like coconuts. If you slip me a cookie that has those nasty little flakes of coconut in them, I’ll probably spit it out – I really, emphatically don’t like coconut! I am stressing this point because coconut oil has a place in the kitchen of even the most die-hard coconut hater. Continue reading “Coconut Oil: 80 Reasons to Add It to Your Stockpile”

Americans are brought up to believe all sorts of myths about the country we call home. We’re told our economy is a free market meritocracy governed by the rule of law. We’re told our civil liberties, enshrined in the Bill of Rights, are inviolable and protected by the most powerful military in the world. A fighting force entrusted with the admirable and monumental task of defending freedoms at home, and democracy and human rights abroad. We’re told we exist in a system of self-government, in which our votes matter and our voices heard. In practice, none of this is true.

Fourteen-year-old Caydden Zimmerman’s school days start early and end late.
He has a 90-minute bus ride to get from the homeless shelter where he is staying in Boise, Idaho, to his middle school. He wakes up at 5:45 a.m., quickly brushes his teeth and smooths some gel in his hair, and then he dashes downstairs to catch his school bus.

MONTPELIER, Vt. (WCAX) Vermont game wardens are seeking public help in stopping poaching this hunting season.
Vermont Fish and Wildlife Col. Jason Batchelder says anyone witnessing poaching, or thinks they know of poaching, should call the nearest State Police barracks to report it. He says common infractions are baiting animals, or shooting animals at night. Batchelder says wardens can often make a strong case against a poacher if information is provided quickly. Baiting animals is illegal, even if you have no intention of shooting them. Continue reading “Vermont game wardens seek public’s help to stop poaching”

I’m sure many of our “baby boomer” friends will remember the soap ads from the 1950s and 60s. Clean was big business then, clean was beautiful, and nobody wanted to stink. B.O. (body odor) was a hot topic thanks to decades of marketing.
Dial wasn’t the first “deodorant” soap, but it was the first one that didn’t smell like turpentine or paint thinner – oh, I’m talkin’ “Lifebuoy.” Lifebuoy, originally made by Lever Bros. (now Unilever) in England, has been around since 1895. The smell was phenol, a compound made with carbolic acid extracted from coal tar. To fight B.O. you could instead smell like an auto body repair shop. Continue reading “A Good Clean Kill, And Other Beauty Secrets”

DENTS RUN, Pa. (AP) — Surrounded by dozens of stone-faced FBI agents on a frigid winter’s day, Dennis and Kem Parada stared down at the empty hole and knew something wasn’t right.
The father-son duo spent years combing this bit of Pennsylvania wilderness with high-end metal detectors, drills and other tools to prospect for a fabled cache of Civil War gold. They felt certain they’d discovered the hiding place of the long-lost booty, leading the FBI to the mountainous, heavily wooded area last March.

Bonifay, FL — Over the weekend, a person whose job description involves kidnapping and caging people for possessing or selling substances deemed illegal by the state—was found possessing and selling substances deemed illegal by the state. What’s more, he was doing it right outside of an assisted living facility while on the taxpayer’s dime.
The officer, Dwayne White, 48, with the Bonifay Police Department was in his patrol car, on duty, and in uniform selling opioids on Saturday when the Florida Department of Law Enforcement arrested him.

Local charity groups in southern Arizona report that “huge groups” of migrants recently apprehended by Border Patrol agents are being released into their care.
Breitbart Texas reported that Tucson and Yuma Sector Border Patrol officials described the illegal crossing of massive numbers of families and unaccompanied minors as a “humanitarian crisis.” The number of these classifications of migrants doubled in recent months. It appears this is forcing another round of catch and release by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Continue reading “Trump Admin Releasing Hundreds of Central American Migrants into U.S.”
